WARNING
This air rifle is not a toy and requires adult supervision if used by a
person under the age of 17 years. It is more powerful than conventional
air rifles and the compressed air supply requires far stricter safety control.
Misuse or careless handling may result in serious injury or death.
AIRGUN SAFETY CODE
· Treat every rifle as though it was loaded. When handling any rifle or gun
don't take anyone's word that it's unloaded, check it yourself.
· Never under any circumstances point your rifle at anyone.
· Never shoot on land without permission from the owner.
· Always ensure it's safe to shoot and be certain of your target before you
squeeze the trigger.
· Be sure that there is a safe area behind the target or a backstop to catch your
pellets. If in doubt, don't shoot.
· Beware of ricochets - do not shoot at water or other smooth surfaces that
may deflect the pellet in a new direction.
· Make sure your rifle is unloaded when carrying it, or taking it indoors or
into a car.
· Always unload your rifle before climbing fences or other obstacles.
· Never leave your rifle unattended, even if it's unloaded.
· After use unload, clean, dry and lubricate your rifle before locking it away
safely and out of reach of children. Store your pellets separately.
· Always follow the safety instructions in this booklet.
THE LAW
It is illegal:
· for anyone under 17 to be in possession an airgun, unless supervised by
someone at least 21 years old, or are using it at an approved
shooting club. From the age of 14 a person can use an airgun unsuper-
vised providing they are on private land with the landowner’s consent;
· to carry a loaded air weapon* in a public place;
· to trespass on private land, or enter property without the owner's consent,
with an air weapon;
· to kill or injure any bird or protected animal unless you are authorised to do
so under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981; and
· to fire an air weapon within 15 metres (50 feet) of a road or street.
* Technically, an air rifle is considered loaded if there are pellets in the
magazine, even if the magazine is not in the airgun.
CAUTION!
Dismantling and repair of this rifle should only be carried out by a competent
gunsmith.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your rifle has been designed and manufactured for optimum performance.
Tampering with the components, or any modifications and alterations, may make
the rifle unsafe to use and could invalidate the warranty.
All air rifles require periodic maintenance and inspection. Breakages, improper
functioning, undue wear or corrosion of components may not always be apparent
from external examination. So, even if everything seems to be in good working
order, have your air rifle checked annually by a competent gunsmith.
If you notice ANY mechanical malfunction, perhaps as a result of dropping the
air rifle, you should not continue to use it. Unload the air rifle and arrange for it
to be professionally repaired. Failure to keep your air rifle in proper working
order can be potentially dangerous.
You should always have the power of your air rifle re-checked following any
maintenance or repair work. The smallest of repairs or adjustments can have an
effect on the power. It is your responsibility to make sure the air rifle remains
below the legal limit of 12 ft.lbs. YOU ARE LEGALLY RESPONSIBLE TO
OBSERVE THIS LIMIT.
After each use, check that your rifle is unloaded and wipe the metal and wood-
work surfaces with a lightly oiled cloth. Pay special attention to the metal
finishes as they are not fully rustproof and are vulnerable to damp and
particularly perspiration.
Note: Damage caused by lack of proper care and maintenance is not
covered by the warranty
Do not use oils containing SILICON as this can cause damage to metal surfaces
and particularly to the trigger mechanism.
The rifle should not be oiled or greased except as directed above or when
overhauled by a gunsmith. Incorrect application of oil and grease can often do
more harm than good. Use only Molykote 111 grease where necessary.
 CAUTION! BSA
If the rifle fails to fire, it will be in the 'dead lock' condition. Follow the
instructions for re-setting before proceeding. Do not attempt to move the
bolt with the magazine in place or you will jam two pellets into the barrel. SuperTEN
A pellet is inserted into the barrel each time the bolt is pushed forward.

When re-filling the bottle always check the pressure gauge to ensure the
recommended maxiumum charge pressure of the buddy bottle is not exceeded.
On the standard 200cc bottle the charge pressure is 232 bar (3365psi). Before
re-fitting the buddy bottle, check the condition of the filler valve 'O' ring and
apply a little Molycote 111 grease.
CAUTION!
Do not exceed the recommended air pressure for the buddy bottle, which will
be stamped on the bottle (e.g. CP232 bar). Fill slowly to avoid overheating.
Loading the magazine
Ensure you have the correct calibre and type of pellet for your rifle. BSA manu-
facture a range of recommended pellets suitable for target shooting or hunting
under varying conditions. Hold the magazine between finger and thumb with
the cover plate screw head uppermost. Push a pellet nose first into the magazine
loading chamber and press down its skirt under the cover plate. Rotate the
central body of the magazine anti-clockwise until the next vacant position lines
up with the hole in the cover plate. Insert another pellet and repeat the
procedure until the magazine is full.
The white dot on the magazine body will be at the top when all ten pellets are
loaded. Note that the cover plate opening is intentionally out of line with the
pellet chambers in order to retain the pellets.
High pressure compressed air can be used safely with the SuperTEN, provided
strict safety codes are followed. The removable 'buddy' bottle should be filled
from a standard dry air tank supply, preferably from an authorised centre.
A pressure gauge must be included in the charging set-up, together with a supply
hose bleed device. An adapter is available for filling the bottle with a hand pump.
When using a hand pump care must be taken to open the water trap at regular
intervals to release moisture. The BSA hand pump, manufactured by Hills of
Sheffield incorporates a patented 'Dry-pac' moisture extraction system and is
highly recommended.
Under no circumstances should the buddy bottle be fitted when the rifle is in a
partially assembled state.
CAUTION!
Use only Molykote 111 grease on the air cylinder or connection. Automotive
mineral oils and grease can cause an explosion if used with high-pressure air.

WARNING
This air rifle is not a toy and requires adult supervision if used by a
person under the age of 17 years. It is more powerful than conventional
air rifles and the compressed air supply requires far stricter safety control.
Misuse or careless handling may result in serious injury or death.
AIRGUN SAFETY CODE
· Treat every rifle as though it was loaded. When handling any rifle or gun
don't take anyone's word that it's unloaded, check it yourself.
· Never under any circumstances point your rifle at anyone.
· Never shoot on land without permission from the owner.
· Always ensure it's safe to shoot and be certain of your target before you
squeeze the trigger.
· Be sure that there is a safe area behind the target or a backstop to catch your
pellets. If in doubt, don't shoot.
· Beware of ricochets - do not shoot at water or other smooth surfaces that
may deflect the pellet in a new direction.
· Make sure your rifle is unloaded when carrying it, or taking it indoors or
into a car.
· Always unload your rifle before climbing fences or other obstacles.
· Never leave your rifle unattended, even if it's unloaded.
· After use unload, clean, dry and lubricate your rifle before locking it away
safely and out of reach of children. Store your pellets separately.
· Always follow the safety instructions in this booklet.
THE LAW
It is illegal:
· for anyone under 17 to be in possession an airgun, unless supervised by
someone at least 21 years old, or are using it at an approved
shooting club. From the age of 14 a person can use an airgun unsuper-
vised providing they are on private land with the landowner’s consent;
· to carry a loaded air weapon* in a public place;
· to trespass on private land, or enter property without the owner's consent,
with an air weapon;
· to kill or injure any bird or protected animal unless you are authorised to do
so under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981; and
· to fire an air weapon within 15 metres (50 feet) of a road or street.
* Technically, an air rifle is considered loaded if there are pellets in the
magazine, even if the magazine is not in the airgun.
CAUTION!
Dismantling and repair of this rifle should only be carried out by a competent
gunsmith.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your rifle has been designed and manufactured for optimum performance.
Tampering with the components, or any modifications and alterations, may make
the rifle unsafe to use and could invalidate the warranty.
All air rifles require periodic maintenance and inspection. Breakages, improper
functioning, undue wear or corrosion of components may not always be apparent
from external examination. So, even if everything seems to be in good working
order, have your air rifle checked annually by a competent gunsmith.
If you notice ANY mechanical malfunction, perhaps as a result of dropping the
air rifle, you should not continue to use it. Unload the air rifle and arrange for it
to be professionally repaired. Failure to keep your air rifle in proper working
order can be potentially dangerous.
You should always have the power of your air rifle re-checked following any
maintenance or repair work. The smallest of repairs or adjustments can have an
effect on the power. It is your responsibility to make sure the air rifle remains
below the legal limit of 12 ft.lbs. YOU ARE LEGALLY RESPONSIBLE TO
OBSERVE THIS LIMIT.
After each use, check that your rifle is unloaded and wipe the metal and wood-
work surfaces with a lightly oiled cloth. Pay special attention to the metal
finishes as they are not fully rustproof and are vulnerable to damp and
particularly perspiration.
Note: Damage caused by lack of proper care and maintenance is not
covered by the warranty
Do not use oils containing SILICON as this can cause damage to metal surfaces
and particularly to the trigger mechanism.
The rifle should not be oiled or greased except as directed above or when
overhauled by a gunsmith. Incorrect application of oil and grease can often do
more harm than good. Use only Molykote 111 grease where necessary.
